Sorry to hear about your tranny....I got some more info FYI.
Ford designed the electronic shift 4 speeds and did not put a reversable pump in the mix, so, when you back up with a 4 speed auto, the oil sits stagnant. If you just got off the road pulling a trailer, then have to back up, if there is any way you can let the truck sit before moving backwards, it will save your tranny.
Of all the issues the Ford trannies have, 75% are electrical. When you shop rebuilds the tranny, make sure they back flush the cooler, because they will plug with debris from inside the tranny and stop the flow of oil after the rebuild. then you will be back in the same situation as before.
